Barcelona Metro Yellow Line Open Again

Finally the metro is back in operation along L4 yellow line! It has been a long couple of months but now everything is back to normal especially for tourists renting Barcelona accommodation near the beach.
From 26 de June a stretch of Line 4, between Ciutadella / Vila Olímpica and La Pau stations, were closed while work on the track took place. An investment of 7.1 million euros was put into the project which involved renovating the track between Bogatell and Selva de Mar, in order to reduce the vibrations caused by passing trains and stop water seepage. Work will also took place to improve the stations on this stretch.
A temporary shuttle bus was introduced to replace the closed metro stops which would travel the same journey as the metro normally would. This however still was not enough for those staying in Barcelona apartments and wanted to go to the beach, due to the fact that it was peak season for thousands of tourists flocking to the beach.

Typical!
Another fantastic piece of Catalan common sense to undergo such a huge upheaval in the middle of their peak tourist season.
However this lasted till 27 August and the affected eight stations are now thankfully, again in operation.
